Customer Reviews

Sunday morning delight

The Irishman abroad podcast is the perfect companion on my Sunday morning run. The variety of guests Jarlath interviews are superb and offer a wide variety of conversations. Top podcast by a top comedian and conversationalist!

Insufferable

The host constantly speaks over guests and imposes his own perceptions of Ireland onto them. I’m not a fan.

Great long-form interviews

It's really refreshing to hear long-form interviews where you really get to know the interviewee. So much of the internet is headlines and soundbites. This is a one-of-a-kind podcast.
